Woah wait… Can we solve the measuring crisis but just measuring from the trunk at the top and all the way across then wrapping around the exposed end and back down the length on the bottom to the next obstruction?
Wouldnt that then include the width in your overall measurement and everyone would be generally impressed at any dimension?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The Real Tech Billionaire Motto: "Move fast and break other people's things."
1·12 days agoYeah, and yet we dont do that now. Seems clever to pick a time when everyone is to complacent to do something about it.
You are right that most of us reject being a monster personally but we aren’t doing anything about it and taking advantage of us seems to be working quite well.

51·12 days agoI mean… Pretty much a clever idea.
Use other peoples money to drop a bomb on the current system economically. When its reduced to rubble put a flag up saying that its your rubbles and then watch as people slowly and desperately try to put it back together using their own money, and then start sucking the blood and life out of it and using the rebuilt infrastructure as if it was really yours all along. Didnt you see the flag?
It helps to have rich friends that you dont actually care about to abuse their money and then abuse their influence and power of politics to keep anyone else from trying to build an alternative.
It really is just make others pay for everything all the time, as a game to those who already have more than enough.
I feel old… Binding of Isaac is probably my greatest time sink game and I have played every version of it.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It took shockingly few generations for our ruling class to become morons
4·19 days agoThe problem is that all the previous generations are the ones who came up with the unique schemes to start stealing back all the wealth. The current group just shouts “look over there!” Or “no I can steal 1 billion 776 million from you because its a patriotic number”
They are also to stupid to realize that losing some wealth would be the better choice than letting the world burn because some other guy sold them a shed with an underground bunker full of guns they will be shot with the moment they try to tell their security team they are the god emperor of the ashes.

1·19 days agoI have come to the idea that its, hard times makes scammers which eventually people close fisted with their money are less likely to be scammed.
But eventually people become loose with their money when they feel they have enough and use it poorly and then we have an abundance of overpaid charlatans.And right now we are still seeing so many with such an endless amount of money they can’t even feel the draining of their wealth by scammers. So the cycle is not working so well.

11·19 days agoHave you read the “analysis” on the 2024 election?
I think that “analyst” is just fancy talk for their relatives who dont have another job when its not an actual scientific field cause I have worked with real analysts.Sure they are more literate but also the way they balk at expanding their knowledge makes me think they aren’t reading much worth it.
They have access to money and trial and error with more room to make more errors than the average person.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It took shockingly few generations for our ruling class to become morons
5·20 days agoYeah, at least like their grandparents had interesting and clever schemes about money that made you feel like they thought it through even if they were largely incapable of anything else.
Currently it feels difficult to assume they think about anything.

The DNC doesnt believe in oligarchs… But they sure do believe in the super value of corporations and the boards that direct them. But deem that this group of wealthy detached individuals is safer than a singular wealthy individual unless the singular individual wants to donate to them.
Power to the wealthy. Thats the only way we seem to be allowed to play the game they call politics.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•"Done in Photoshop" has gone from meaning "inauthentic" to "authentic"
1·27 days agoI really think we need to not consider everything AI. Like auto selection tools have existed for so long and its the same sorta algorithm but computer generated. Thats where you know it was low skill. Computers dont have skills they have efficiency. Computer generated is low skill and super efficient, like the tools we make from them.

No no, preconfigure some fire sticks and then mail them out. At least we have quick connect for when logged out.
Its the same way Quantum mechanics work. Its about perspective.
